Hello. This is the end of week 9 and the beginning of week 10 of flowering. One week to go. OK... 1 week to go. I'll post before harvest pics. Been flushing for a week now and have got some yellowing and dying leaves going on. Part of flushing. I add 1 oz. of 30% hydrogen peroxide to each 5 gallons of tap water that goes into the reservoir. Great flushing agent... add oxygen to the water, helps with root rot, and helps to finish the plant before harvest. OK. Keep Growing Straight. Chuck.

13 Jun 2021 Continuing to flush my DarkStar Kush probably for another week at least. If I were following my original plan, I would be cutting her down today and starting the harvest. However, the runoff is still colored (not as much as it was, but still), and the TDS runoff was higher today than yesterday by almost 200 ppm. I’ve added new pics for this new week to show how she’s changing colors later in her life. She’s begging to be harvested, but I want to smoke her and not her nutrients! I’ve already waited this long, what’s another week or so. 🤷‍♂️ Oh well. I gave her a gallon of water chilled to 49.2 degrees F, and gave her 20 drops of pH DOWN which adjusted the pH from its initial 8.2 to a final pH of 6.7. The TDS going in was 76 ppm. Runoff pH was 6.3, and TDS runoff was 1740 ppm (up from 1462 ppm yesterday). Tent temperature was 82 degrees F, and humidity was 42%. 14 Jun 2021 Continuing with the flush today. Feeding a gallon of 45.5 degree F water with nothing more than 22 drops (gtts) of pH DOWN to make it just right. Initial pH was 8.4, and adjusted down to 6.4. The TDS going in was 85 ppm. Runoff pH was also 6.4, and TDS runoff was 1377 ppm. Working in the right direction at least. TDS runoff yesterday was 1740 ppm, so a reduction of 363 ppm today, but still a ways to go. Tent temperature was 82 degrees F and humidity was 47%. She’s looking more and more ready for harvest each day! Uploaded some pics of her colorful foliage today along with some new trichome pics. They’re almost all cloudy/milky with some amber interspersed here and there. Come on flush!! Do your job! 😜 16 Jun 2021 Went out of town on a day trip yesterday, so no watering was done, but I’m back today to continue the flush. The tent temperature was 81 degrees F, and humidity was 43%. Thought I’d start off backwards today in my note from the norm. I gave a gallon of cold water (51 degrees F) with 20 drops of pH DOWN to adjust the initial pH of 8.2 to 6.5. The TDS going in was 83 ppm. Runoff pH was also 6.5, which to me is promising, and the TDS runoff was 814 ppm. That’s a decrease of 563 ppm since the last watering/flush on the 14th. Hopefully in just a couple of days I’ll be able to start the harvest because she is READY!! I took more trichome pics today which were marvelous! They are perfect (to my untrained and inexperienced eye)! Hopefully I’m just days away!! 17 Jun 2021 Continuing the flush another day. The TDS runoff is still decreasing a little bit every day. Today I’ll be uploading a video instead of a bunch of pics. I already have a lot for this week, so I figured I’d do something different. I’m still giving chilled, and properly pH’ed fresh water. Nothing else. So, today I gave a gallon of H2O chilled to 51F. The initial pH was 8.4, so I added 22 drops (1ml) of pH DOWN to adjust it to 6.4. The TDS going in was 85 ppm. Runoff pH was 6.5, and TDS was 758 ppm. There is a 56 ppm decrease from yesterday, and I was hoping for much more, but it is what it is. I’ll keep going till it is better till harvest. Looking at the plant, it’s losing several leaves that are just drying up and falling off. Not a lot, but about as much as should be expected at this stage. The plant, trichomes, and buds are ready for harvest, but I want to make sure that I get all the nutrients out before I do it. Thankfully, I’m a patient person! 19 Jun 2021 I’ve been doing the flush for 2 weeks now, and the TDS runoff is still measuring 647 ppm. Honestly, I don’t know what the level should be for the harvest, but I’m getting to the point where I just want to go ahead and do it. Her buds are looking awesome, and many of the sugar leaves have turned dark purple, but she’s losing a lot of her bigger leaves. None of the ones around any buds, so I’m not concerned with it that much. However, I don’t want the trichomes to get more amber. The vast majority are milky, which is what I’m looking for with only a smattering of amber here and there. She’s just right!! Anyway, I gave a gallon of water at 48.7F with an initial pH of 8.3. I added 21 drops (1ml) of pH DOWN to adjust it to 6.7. The TDS going in was 71 ppm. Runoff pH was also 6.7 (it has consistently been the same or just a decimal point off from that going in for the last week or so). The runoff TDS was 647 ppm as noted above. Tent temperature was 84F, and humidity was 48%.

Le Bilan d'une Session Mémorable & Remerciements ​Une culture d'une grande facilité : Babouch s'est révélée être une plante très facile à cultiver. Malgré quelques erreurs totalement involontaires en cours de route – notamment un pH monté trop haut à cause du bulleur ou les fortes chaleurs causées par les lampes trop proches (liées à sa grande taille) combinées aux températures extérieures – elle a tout supporté avec une résistance incroyable. Le système Autopot a fonctionné à merveille, maintenant la plante saine et en excellente santé tout au long de sa vie. Elle a su offrir de magnifiques têtes bien denses malgré les excès de température. ​Le défi de la manucure finale (Défoliation) : La défoliation finale avant séchage a été particulièrement compliquée. À cause de sa forte densité et de sa forme en foxtailing (queues de renard), retirer les petites et grandes feuilles incrustées au cœur des têtes s'est transformé en un travail de précision. beaucoup de temps passé a retiré 6 heures de travail à la main .Beaucoup de "monofolioles" (feuilles à une seule pale) s'étaient formées à l'intérieur même des buds, une réaction typique de la plante face au stress thermique pour essayer de transpirer et de se refroidir. ​Conclusion : Je ne pouvais vraiment pas rêver mieux pour cette session. Par sa structure, sa résilience et ses arômes, Babouch reste l'une de mes variétés préférées à ce jour. ​📣 Remerciements Finaux ​Un immense merci à Fast Buds pour cette génétique incroyable qui m'a permis de travailler cette magnifique F2. ​Un grand merci à Biotabs pour leurs engrais formidables et si simples à utiliser au quotidien, ainsi qu'à @MIA_BIOTABS et @Mrs_Larimar pour leur présence et leurs précieux conseils tout au long de l'aventure. ​Je tiens à remercier chaleureusement @Dryrocket pour l'opportunité et la chance d'expérimenter leur appareil de séchage Dryrocket. Babouch n'a malheureusement pas pu attendre plus longtemps dans le noir et a dû être coupée hier, mais j'espère recevoir l'appareil aujourd'hui ou demain pour y installer ses têtes de Frostbanger ! ​Enfin, merci à tout le monde, à toute la communauté qui a suivi, commenté et fait vivre ce journal du début à la fin ! J'espère qu'il vous à plus . Malheureusement se sera la dernière jusqu'au 1 septembre. les vacances approchent à grans pas et je n'aurais plus le temps de refaire une nouvelle culture. Mais je vous réserve pleins de surprises pour la rentrée. BONNE VACANCES À TOUS .

Vamos familia, actualizamos la sexta semana de floración de estas Purple OG kush de DutchFem. Y es que no veas cómo van progresando las flores y qué color que sanas que se ven. Llevo aplicando una semana engordacogollos y empiezan a engordar bien. Ya empezamos la recta final, ya vamos viendo cómo avanza y esperamos que no surjan problemas de última hora. Hasta aquí todo bien muy contento con el resultado del proceso hasta ahora. Agrobeta: https://www.agrobeta.com/agrobetatiendaonline/36-abonos-canamo Mars hydro: Code discount: EL420 https://www.mars-hydro.com/ Las maximas de temperatura no superan los 26 grados y las mínimas no bajan 20, así que no me puedo quejar. Los niveles de humedad también son los correctos van entre 50%/55% de humedad relativa. Por supuesto el Ph lo estamos dejando alrededor de 6. Hasta aquí es todo, buenos humos 💨💨💨.

420 Fastbuds Gelato Auto Week 11 This week has been super interesting non the less. We had a couple monsoons roll through and absolutely dump a ton of water. Over all they did handle it well no broken branches but between the humidity and heat I can't wait for cooler temperatures. Still watering straight well water about 2 liters daily. They're moving through flower fast as the flower sites are growing super fast swelling nicely and starting to have a real sweet smell. All in all Happy Growing.

Here I am again, I've been neglected this diary for 3 weeks so I made a fast update on the last 3 weeks, not so detailed unfortunately. Today is day 58, some leaves are yellowing and I don't understand what it could be. It seems a Phosphorus deficiency but there are also this strange rusty spots on some leaves on top of the plant. From what I know in case of deficiencies the first leaves to suffer should be the ones in the bottom part of the plant but I don't know. I upped the calmag a little because the rust spots could indicate calmag deficiency. Learning something new everyday with this hobby, I just hope I manage to stop the problem because in my previous grow I had a similar problem and didn't managed to stop it so in harvest time all the leaves were basically dead. Anothe detail I'm not happy about is the not so even canopy I created. I think I started LST a little too soon and therefore deformed a little too much the plant. Next time I'll try to top for the first time. Other than the problem I mentioned the buds are stacking up really really nice and they smell amazing. Real frosty buds it seems as you can see from the video. I hope I'm doing good :D

Bud weight continues in week 4 of flowering…I don’t know if it’s the location or the strain but these buds are really big for 4 weeks….can’t wait for harvest in 35 days.

Very pleased with this grow so far, I often mess up photo periods one way or another but think im getting somewhere now. I am growing in a mixture of soil and coco with plenty of perlite and it seems to working out better than just in soil , I have also added a few worms not sure if their still allive but will find out later. The pistols are still white so hopefully they will turn amber soon. I have one more seed left of this strain so I am hopeful it will be nice. I am looking forward to seeing it chopped soon to make way for my wedding cake which will probably have to share the tent later with another auto

Added yellow sticky fly traps to all cubes as a preventative measure to avoid infestation of fungus gnats. So far none have been spotted. Defoliated and did a little more LST to all the plants to open up the center and give more light to lower shoots. Blue Dream 3 and Chemdawg 3 started showing some discoloration on the leaves (yellowing around the veins) and also the leaf tips curling down. Did some research and came up with this... Possible diagnosis: - Yellowing around leaf veins could be a sign of Magnesium or Iron deficiency - Leaf tip curling down could be a sign of Nitrogen Toxicity. - Both could be caused by improper ph balance in water Possible solutions: - Applied Botanicare CalMag+ as a foliar feed and added some to the reservoir. CalMag+ contains Calcium, Magnesium and Iron. - Diluted nutrients in reservoir to lower amount of nitrogen being fed to plants. Was feeding them at 1300ppm, lowered it to 1050ppm - Tested runoff and saw it was coming out at 5.4pH so I increased the pH in the reservoir to 6.0. Now the runnoff is testing at 5.7pH, meaning that my rootzone is in the optimal range of 5.5-5.8 Well wait and see how the plants react to these slight tweaks. Hopefully we start to see a nice healthy even green again.

The plant has clearly reached its final stage of flowering. Bud development is complete and the structure looks fully finished. Trichome coverage is extremely dense across buds and sugar leaves, giving the flowers a heavy, frosty appearance. The pink and purple coloration has continued to spread further down the plant, creating a very appealing contrast and confirming full genetic expression. Aroma has intensified significantly and is now strongly dominated by a sweet, ripe apricot / marmalade note with no harsh or green undertones. Flushing has been initiated this week, with harvest planned in approximately four days. Overall plant health remains solid, and no further swelling is expected. Focus is now on preserving terpene profile and optimal ripeness.

She has suffered with light stress from the week pria to this which caused deficiency. I repotted her after keeping her in natural sunlight for most of the week and will continue to keep her there until she recovers. I have not fed her a two weeks and will continue the draught until the pot almost completely drys!

È al 51 esimo giorno ho fatto 2 settimane di fertilizzante al minimo di bio canna flores ha risposto bene , piccola infestazione di tripidi , maledetti esserini minuscoli che fanno cicatrici argentate alle foglie più tenere , sto facendo prevenzione guardandola tutti i giorni e schiacciando manualmente quelli che vedo , non un infestazione però fastidiosa , mai avuto una volta che non ci sono stati , maledetti … comunque la pianta sembra adorare il caldo e sta iniziando a sprigionare note molto forti di erba , le cime si addensano e il thc si crea e si distrugge in continuazione , ottimo segnale 💪🏻🌿🍀

Strain: Fast Buds – Banana Purple Punch Auto RF3 (2 Plants – Purple & Orange Pheno) Grow Type: Indoor Pot Size: 4 Gallon Fabric Pots Medium: Coco Coir Nutrient Line: Athena Harvest Log These two were a pleasure to run from start to finish. Even though they were relatively small. After harvest, the plants were hung to dry for about 12 days before moving them into jars for curing. The buds dried really well and trimmed really nice as well I did end up taking a test smoke and wow… these two are STRAIGHT ⛽️⛽️. Definitely some high-AF buds 🤣. Even early in the cure they’re already smoking smooth. Overall this was a really great run, especially considering the plants didn’t grow very large. Sometimes the smaller plants still surprise you with quality over quantity, and that’s exactly what happened here. I’m definitely running Banana Purple Punch RF3 again in the future. Drying Conditions 🌡️ Temperature: 20–22°C 💧 Humidity: 55–60% ⏱️ Dry Time: 12 Days Another solid run in the books 🔥 Don’t forget to use my code ISLANDT for 15% off at Fast Buds 🌱

Día 69: Para los que creen que la planta recibe poca luz, ahí esta recibiendo su dosis diaria y cada vez se esta poniendo mejor, si no crece mas es porque tuvo un crecimiento muy atrasado en el cual se le estrechó el tallo, pero ahí esta y logró salir adelante💪🏽

Welcome to week 12 of my black truffle grow! She's a beauty! I haven't got major thing to do in the last couple of weeks. Just retain the water intake. She's stopped stretching and still bulking up the buds. I'm so curious how she will look in a few weeks. She still shows a nice green and no nutrient deficit.
